- We highly recommend that you save your work and close the browser tab that is running Code Builder to stop the usage clock when you aren’t using Code Builder.
- Code Builder is in open beta and is available to try on a first-come, first-served basis. Once you join beta, you might be added to a waitlist, and will receive an email when a spot opens up for you.
